(smf --> phpbb3 conv) cannot edit old posts

Post by mehdi » Mon Mar 03, 2008 2:34 pm

hi,
I cannot edit any of my own posts I made before the smf ---> phpbb3 conversion.
I like to be able to edit the first post of a long thread... (for lasts informations).

Hi,

There is a limit set on editing you own posts. Between the time of posting and roughly a week you can edit it, after that you won't be able to edit it anymore. Your post is probably past that limit?

There wasn't such limit before. There's a thread I've keep on updating over two years.
I know this a bit wrong, but I was too busy (or lazy) to answer every single posts in the forum, so all the support for my bridge was merged in a single thread (added to that , having a mail notification is convenient).
So I've been updating changelog in first post of that big thread ...
Anyway, that's not too important. Will notify if there's a big change to the bridge , in extension directory.
